Transfer Rumour Wilifred Gnonto

[Dymak]

Hoodwinked by those stupid Italian sports journalists again

You could see that being accurate, but there's an awful lot of 'understanding' and not a lot of 'knowing' in that report. They continue to conflate pounds with Euros as well, deliberately so imo.

we still pay decent wages as a club, so could match anything Villa/inter may offer. He also wouldn’t have to relocate, if his family are happy in the area. But if it’s just a footy decision to make, he’s on his way to Villa park or back to Italy.

Probably mean we are be up signing troure or Bailey from villa

Im sure an italian international would far prefer to play in the championship than the premier league and a pay rise.

This journalist is a bit daft

I think it’s more “why move to Everton when other bigger clubs want me” which is a very fair assessment.

If other big clubs were really after him he would be gone. Nobody is willing to pay big money for him at this stage.

Considering the window is still open for ages the possibility is still there. We’re not the only club linked to him.

He’s not really Zat; the more logical thought process are the leaks of an Everton bid are to start the ball rolling with other clubs

 

[blueboy72]

He also had a Premiership Relegation at the age of 19 and half the season he didn't look in the place either.

I'll tell you what, we let you take him and you give us Buendia !!

Cost 38 mil and has got about 4 goals in 2 yrs. he’s not worth 20

But why use us as a fake bid? All the rhetoric is we have zero money and everyone knows that. Surely you would use a club that could afford it.

Don’t think either of those two have been great at Villa, but would improve our weak squad. Hopefully better targets can be found

Probably because it’ll drive more attention. We had news stories last year about all bids we were making. Last week we were bidding for Harrison

It’s the media, they print [Poor language removed]

We are Everton, we will never sign good players. Close thread.

Would that be Emi Buendia that was relegated from the Premier League while playing for Norwich? Saying that, Everton does well with players from Villa that were relegated from the Premier League, Gana was relegated from the PL just before you bought him. Yeah, maybe a good idea to steer clear of 19 year old Gnonto.

That’s just a blatant lie

I admire your confidence.

I think there's another issue with signing players from relegated clubs, or any Championship club really, of the very real/likely possibility of the two clubs swapping places in a year. Got to be a hard sell to convince them that won't happen
